Cryptography is the art of creating mathematical assurances for who can do what with data, including but not limited to encryption of messages such that only the key-holder can read it. Cryptography lives at an intersection of math and computer science.

This is a technical subreddit covering the theory and practice of modern and *strong* cryptography.

Notice: This subreddit is not actively monitored, so the posts here are only a small subset of what exists on reddit.
